Herpes Exposure?

Chances of being infected with Herpes from the following scenerio?  There was no anal penetration and/or oral penile penetration, but pre-cum fluids were transferred anally, as we were both masturbating, without a condom, and then fingered one another. Some body rubbing and penile rubbing also occurred. Only had one encounter with this individual, and I don't know if he had herpes, no visible signs but know what none need to show in order for you to get it from them. Please help.

Also, about a week after the encounter I begin to constantly urinate, with some discomfort. Can this be a sign of herpes or another std?

you can contract herpes that way but the odds of such are incredibly low ( direct skin on skin contact ).  it's not a realistic risk for contracting herpes.

I mean mutual penile rubbing, meaning rubbing each other's penis (penis to penis contact)

Thank you for your response! No I have not, will be going in tomorrow. I hate to be one that nags, but penile rubbing if the individual had herpes cannot have infected me for sure? Thank you everyone!
